Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A method for starting a one-touch system (OTS) through a hot key on a computer executable system platform by utilizing a routine with a boot agent service to enable a user to start via a hot key a system that offers one-touch functions and its interface, the method comprising the steps of: starting an operating system (OS) and entering the desktop of the OS; executing a boot agent procedure; selecting a hot key for the OTS; starting the OTS and opening a one-touch user interface (UI); accepting a functional hot key of the OTS selected by the user; and calling the associated program module to perform the function in the one-touch UI of the OTS; wherein the one-touch UI is the only one active window displayed in the OS desktop.

2

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the computer executable system platform includes an input device, a display device, and a system host.

3

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the system host has the OS, the boot agent procedure, and the OTS.

4

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein all operations, controls, and input actions are performed via the input device.

5

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the input device is selected from the group consisting of a keyboard, a mouse, a digital touch-control panel and a voice recognition system.

6

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the boot agent procedure is set in a boot procedure of the OS.

7

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the boot agent procedure further contains the step of generating an agent icon on the desktop of the OS.

8

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of selecting a hot key for the OTS utilizes the hot key to call the boot agent procedure and starts the OTS through program hooking.

9

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one-touch UI displays all one-touch functions and the menu of the functional hot keys.
